According to flight global, automatic stab trim should have been inhibited when alpha > 30 degrees - Stalled AF447 did not switch to abnormal attitude law but it was not.

So is this saying that the flight control system continued to do what was asked of it - trim for attitude / 1g and therefore trimmed in the stall - when it should have dropped out?


Edit: Isn't 30 degrees AOA..rather high?
